1Neutron Capture Therapy of Cancer — Neutron Capture Therapy (NCT) is a noninvasive therapeutic modality for treating locally invasive malignant tumors such as primary brain tumors and recurrent head and neck cancer. It is a two step procedure: first, the patient is injected with a… …
2Neutron capture nucleosynthesis — describes two nucleosynthesis pathways: the r process and the s process, for rapid and slow neutron captures, respectively. R process describes neutron capture in a region of high neutron flux, such as during supernova nucleosynthesis after core… …

6Boron Neutron Capture Therapy — (BNCT) is an experimental form of radiotherapy that utilizes a neutron beam that interacts with boron injected to a patient. BNCT depends on the interaction of slow neutrons with boron 10 to produce alpha particles and lithium nuclei, without… …
7Neutron flux — The neutron flux is a quantity used in reactor physics corresponding to the total length travelled by all neutrons per unit time and volume [1]. The neutron fluence is defined as the neutron flux integrated over a certain time period. Contents 1… …
8Neutron economy — is defined as the ratio of an adjoint weighted average of the excess neutron production divided by an adjoint weighted average of the fission production. The distribution of neutron energies in a nuclear reactor differs from the fission neutron… …
